The concept was to slow the car down, by putting such a large Roots blower, the parasitic loss would reduce the power output.

It's a locomotive blower that the guy put on for shits and giggles. I can't remember his name; but the car was featured on one of the urbanhillbilly.com videos. He said it did run but when he blipped the throttle, it lifted the left front tire and blew both headgaskets.
*edit* it was on the "Carnage Fest" DVD, the guy's name is Mike Christianson (sp?)

you know they used the old "rope over a tree branch" method to get the blower in.
